Gosselin: His career's over, but there will be no forgetting SMU's Dremel tool - the 'one in a million' Nic Moore

UNIVERSITY PARK -- Nic Moore said good-bye to Moody Coliseum on Thursday night.

He's gone now but not likely to be forgotten.

"They're going to retire Nic's jersey, I bet," SMU coach Larry Brown said.

His jersey number 11 certainly belongs in the rafters with the 53 of Jon Koncak and the 32 of Jim Krebs. The three seasons Moore spent on the court rival the success of any era of SMU basketball.

But an NCAA probation will prevent both the best team and best player of the Brown era from pursuing a national championship this spring.
